Most folks who just see the car in it's finished state will never realize what you had to do to get it looking so right, but the self satisfaction of knowing what you've done is priceless.
Bob you're right about all of that... i'm doing things, and i'm sure you have too things that no one will every see but you but you'll always know their there... It's like some one will come up and say what a bitch'n paint job but have no clue the 100's of hours spent block sanding and spraying primer.. i'm a very picky on door and hood gaps so i've spent weeks on just getting them right, and i bet 90% of the people who see it will never notice.. built a '52 chevy suburban for some people and i bet i spent 3 months getting the door and hood gaps right, which was a little harder being steel.. lot of grinding, welding etc... glad you like it
